Heiner Barz (* 1957 in Stuttgart-Bad Cannstatt ) is a German educational researcher. In 2001 he was appointed professor for educational science at Heinrich Heine University in Düsseldorf , where he heads the department for educational research and management. From 2009 to 2018 he was honorary chairman of the Institute for International Communication with locations in Düsseldorf and Berlin.

Life

After studying education, sociology and political science at the Free University of Berlin and the Ruprecht-Karls University in Heidelberg was Heiner Barz 1992 Micha Brumlik Dr. phil. PhD. 1999 followed the habilitation "Further education and social milieus" in Freiburg i. Br. With Rudolf Tippelt . In 2001 he was appointed to the Heinrich Heine University in Düsseldorf as a university professor for educational research and management. His research activities include - often within the framework of successfully acquired third-party funded projects - topics that relate to fields of innovation ( reform pedagogy , educational reform , cultural education , eLearning ) or at interfaces with sociology ( migration sociology , educational sociology , youth sociology ), economics ( education financing , education marketing , education controlling ) and to philosophy ( change in values , postmodern religion ).

We met with a greater response. a. the empirical studies on “Youth and Religion”, “Educational Experiences at Waldorf Schools” and “Educational Experiences at Montessori Schools”, or the study sponsored by the Mercator Foundation and the Vodafone Foundation “Great diversity, fewer opportunities”. As an expert in reform education and a critic of school education that is one-sidedly oriented towards standardized tests, Heiner Barz is often in demand as an interview partner (including dpa, Zeit, Handelsblatt, see web links).

Since 2009 Heiner Barz has been writing columns under the title "Professors Life" for the university website of the Rheinische Post at irregular intervals . In 2009 he was elected chairman of the board of the Institute for International Communication eV (IIK), a university-related language course provider for the preparation of students for studying abroad with a focus on German as a foreign language; the annual turnover in 2017 was EUR 6.8 million. The IIK evening academy initiated by him anticipated the idea of ​​the citizens' university - now part of the HHU's mission statement. Topics in the series, which are also available as book publications, were “Education and Migration” (including with the then Minister of Integration Armin Laschet, 2010/2011), “Does Islam belong to Germany?” (2012), “Foreign skilled workers” (2013/14) “Refugees welcome - and then? "(2015/16)" Back in the USSR? "(2016/17) (see works).

From 2016 he was able to implement the concept of service learning at HHU - initially in the area of ​​refugee aid, since 2018 also on the topic of diversity and inclusion.

In 2001 his “online textbook youth research” started as the HHU's first eLearning project. His critical view of the arbitrary handling of cases of suspected plagiarism at German universities was a. taken up in Cicero, Zeit, Welt. He accused the “Council for Cultural Education” of using a concept of culture that was narrowed to hegemonic high culture. In the debate triggered by media scientist Bernhard Pörksen about the declining social influence of professors, he missed the example of an open letter from PISA critics "ecstasies of risky thinking". He sees German reporting on the Gülen movement as being shaped by an alliance of anti-religious affects, conspiracy-theoretical sect hunts and Kemalist-laicist mentalities, in which moderate appeals hardly stand a chance.

Heiner Barz has been a member of the scientific advisory board of the Sinus Institute since 2011 .
